What exactly does it mean to be a freelancer? What does an aspiring freelancer do? Is it for me? How would you scale and brand your business? These questions are major roadblocks for many who want to become a freelancer. “My #1 tip for freelancers is to NETWORK!” -Marvin de Leon.

We strive to build a community of support and networking who can guide you through your road to becoming a freelancer. Well, you’re in luck! The Freelancer Fair is here to give you tips of the trade to make sure you UP YOUR GAME this 2018. Who knows you can meet your future business partner or long-term friend here too.

The Freelancer Fair is here to shorten the learning curve of becoming a freelancer and ultimately give you the guide to achieve FREEDOM as a freelancer. Freelancers have the flexibility of creating their own schedule, removing the boring ‘9-5’ corporate job, and increasing potential to become a top earner in your field. Freelancers are their own boss, which can be a pro or a huge con. You have a major responsibility to yourself to always grow your brand.
Here are some amazing topics we will cover this year
● The evolution of a freelancer: From Newbie to top earner
● Maximizing online tools for freelancing, ie Social Media
● Design excellence
● Achieving success and happiness in freelancing
